This is a living document, all info is subject to change.

This website is under construction. Some formatting is wonky and some of the Awakener Guides are not updated. Please be patient!

Let me know on the Mythag Library Discord if you have any feedback or suggestions!

Welcome to Morimens!

This guide is aimed at new players who are just starting the game. You can use it as a quick reference for common questions. It also contains advice about game strategy and how to spend your resources.

This info is based on my experience as a veteran player and speedrunner, as well as the opinions of top players in the EN community. No advice is perfect, however I have tried to make this guide as unbiased and complete as possible.

Thanks to the following players for their feedback: Al, Alice, Angbak, Anna, Arandomflamev2, Aria, Arintal, Arisu, Aurora, Bagels, Blecnes, Bluelien, Calliphora, Catato, cornonthemacabre, denyess, dracozion, dudu, Ellie, Exo, Fibrinogen, fish, Frosthief, John Morimens, Jolly, Juice, juno, Jynn, Kaly, Klips, L, Lens, Lil poison bro, Linasera, Megidola, Melwyn, Mengluo, Mika, moonie, monchi, Null, PolkaRain, ppep, Rascal, Redz, Reya, Selna, smile, Snorlax, Soma, SovietOnion, Spooky, Tea, VxVendetta, Zekiel, Zyocuh.

Thanks to Sor and Fjant for building the web version of the guide.

What about Flares?

While searching for guides, you may come across Flares117’s YouTube channel or “Holy Spreadsheet.”

I recommend taking them with a giant grain of salt, as Flares is a divisive content creator with a lot of questionable takes. He has been banned from multiple communities, including the official BIAV Discord, for harassment, brigading, trolling, and doxxing.

This guide was created as an alternative reference for new players that isn’t tied to a single person’s memes and biases.

Read the In-Game Tutorials

A lot of information can be found in the in-game tutorials. Clicking on various icons in the UI will bring up information as well.

This guide assumes you have already read all of these things and understand:

  • how the basic game mechanics work
  • what arithmetica, aliemus, keyflare, exalts, and posses are
  • what each of the stats does
  • what each of the realms does
  • how to use Aequor stances, Caro Crimson Furnace, and Ultra Annihilation

If you need further explanation for any of these, consult the Mythag Compendium.

Redemption Codes

Codes are often given out from social media promotions. You can redeem them for Silver and other rewards.

The best way to learn what codes are currently active is to ask in the official Discord.

You Will Die

Art by calcduc

As a new player, you start in a honeymoon period. Chapters 1-5 of Faded Legacy are relatively easy and can be beaten with random characters playing random cards.

Once you reach the midgame, Morimens stops holding your hand. Enemies will no longer roll over to basic attacks. You will see incoming damage that is higher than your whole HP bar. You will probably die the first time you attempt many bosses.

Treat each defeat as a lesson rather than a setback. This game is 20% pay-to-win and 80% skill and patience. If you spend thousands of dollars on a bad team, you will still die. If you pay attention, build your team right, and play your cards right, you'll overcome challenges that seem impossible.

One more thing: there’s no shame in using Emergency Gnoses. The game gives you a free revive every day. Unless you're aiming for achievements or bragging rights, why waste it?
